More T shirts and Hoddie

My other Ts where successful and I had nearly sold them all so I decided to have a go at printing a different design, using the same splatted marble effect, but with a different colour combination. I scanned in some of plain black prints and inverted them to see which will works best.

  • I don't like how this looks inverted, It works better normally. There is too much black, but its spread out across the face with no open space to see the marble effect.




  • This design could work well with the marble effect because of the shape on the back of the head. It is a open space too see the paint splats. I just think that again there is to much black in the face. The image is too dark.

  • This design works best inverted, there is a good balance of white and black. Initially I thought there wouldn't be a good amount of space for the splat effect, but it worked well being separated by a bit of line work.

Paper experiments:



T Shirts...

Colour smudge variations...



  • I used the same technique as the on the last Ts and splatted neon colours into black, but used orange and yellow instead. 
  • To speed up the process I safety pinned the T shirts around card board, to save me from having to pin all the T shirts to the table. I could then prepare the Ts at home and then bring them in ready to print straight away. And also made heat pressing them with the iron much easier.
  • I had managed to get the splats a lot more consistent on these because I was getting used to the process. The black also came out dark on them all.
  • I also wanted include a badge/logo again, but thought i'd use a different mono print. Keeping them as a matching set, but with totally different designs.


Hoodie...



  • I bought a cheap hoodie in Primark too have a go at printing on. I really like how it came out, i was intrigued too see how the marble effect worked on grey, and the colours came out okay.
